Fox News' Divisive Poll Question
Fox Nation's poll (right side of the page) asking "Who will cave before fiscal cliff?" is exactly what is wrong with Washington these days. Rather than each side giving ground in the interest of progress, we have Fox essentially advocating for obstructionism over progress. Sure, neither side wants to lose more than they gain, but problems cannot be solved the same way six-year old children solve them---by foot-stamping.
Read moreMegyn Kelly Lets Peter King Change His Benghazi Story
Fox News’ “Ethics in Journalism” hit what may be a new low Friday (11/16/12) when Megyn Kelly was so busy eating up Rep. Peter King’s claim that Benghazi memos were altered in a cover up, that she forgot to ask him why he had already provided a much different story to reporters elsewhere.
Read morePeter Johnson Jr. Takes Sides In The War On Christmas
Along with covering the real conflict in the Middle East, Fox News also provides full coverage for the bogus "War on Christmas." This so called "war" is an annual holiday (ewww, I said a bad word) Fox News feature that advances the Fox patented whine about how evil atheists are just trying to ruin things for godly Christians. So it wasn't a surprise to hear Roger Ailes' personal attorney, litigator for the NY Catholic arch-diocese, Maltese Knight, and Fox "friend" Peter Johnson Jr. (whose names are euphemisms for penis) sadly proclaim, to his fellow Christian/Christmas warrior Steve Doocy, that the first shot in this non-existent war has been fired. While the reality based community has more to think about than supposed insults to the Baby Jesus, for Fox News it's a BFD!!!
Read moreJon Stewart Skewers Fox News' Vilification Of Single Female Obama Voters
In their desperation to blame Mitt Romney's election loss on anybody but Mitt Romney, Fox News targeted the single ladies who voted for Obama because, according to Fox wisdom, these women only care about free birth control. Some of their pundits even went so far as to say that married women voted Republican because they are so much more responsible than those irresponsible slutty sluts who supported the president. Watch Jon Stewart and Kristen Schall talk vaginas!
Read moreOn Hannity, Israeli Politician Gives Advice To Obama About Gaza
On Friday night (11/16/12), the Hannity show hosted Glenn Beck BFF Danny Danon, Deputy Knesset Speaker – not just to discuss the Israeli fighting in Gaza, but for explicit suggestions to President Obama about how to handle Egypt in the wake of that country’s support for Hamas. And Danon gave his opinion freely. Apparently, when it comes to American exceptionalism, Israel is equal to or better than.
Read moreRupert Murdoch Criticizes - Then Apologizes For Criticizing - 'Jewish Owned Press' Over Israel
Rupert Murdoch stuck his nose into press coverage of Israel and just "asked," in a tweet yesterday, "Why Is Jewish owned press so consistently anti-Israel in every crisis?" Then, after a bit of an outcry, Murdoch apologized via another tweet today, "',Jewish owned press' have been sternly criticised, suggesting link to Jewish reporters. Don't see this, but apologise unreservedly."
Read moreNo Democrats On Fox News Sunday Again
The election may be over but there's still plenty of news involving Democrats. Yet, Fox News didn't include a single one in its guest lineup today, even though the topics included General David Petraeus' resignation, the Obama administration's handling of Benghazi and Obamacare. But the guests were Republican Senator Saxby Chambliss, Republican Governor Bobby Jindal, Republican Governor Scott Walker and Independent Senator Joseph Lieberman. Lieberman is chairman of the Senate's Homeland Security Committee and he caucuses with the Democrats but he also campaigned for Republican Senator John McCain in 2008.
Read moreJesse Watters Pushes Bogus GOP Agitprop But Says Bill Maher Fans Stupid?
Like the rest of Bill O'Reilly's male posse, Jesse Watters, in embracing Bill's right wing ideology and misogyny, is a chip off the old blockhead. Watters "comedy," like the "comedy" of Miller, Carolla, Gutfeld, and McGuirk is really an expression of what O'Reilly really believes such as the recent Watters World piece that purported to show that single women are really too stupid to have the right to vote. This week, Watters' oevre was an attempt to prove that Bill Maher's fans are really, as Watters big pimping daddy Bill O'Reilly would say, "loons" who are really too stupid to have the right to vote. His piece was peppered with not so subtle right wing talking point. As such, the smug and smarmy Watters adroitly demonstrated why a number of studies have shown Fox viewers to be misinformed and that begs the question of who are really the loons!
Read moreFox & Friends Enlists Anti-Union Activist To Blame Unions For Twinkies Demise
OHMAGAWD - For many Americans, who love their diabetes and obesity inducing sugary treats, the end of Hostess Brands is truly a sign of the end times. But Fox News says that the end of Hostess Brands is a sign of THE DEATH OF FREE ENTERPRISE!!!!! While the demise of Hostess Brands is a combination of decreasing revenues, debts and some labor issues, Fox News, Fox Nation, and Fox & Friends have not only determined that it's all the fault of those evil unions but, according to the dark imagery and lugubrious music on yesterday's Fox & Friends opening visual, it's THE DEATH OF FREE ENTERPRISE!!!! Oh, nooo....

Fox News "mole" Joe Muto visited HuffPost Live the other day (as our Priscilla previously posted) and confirmed something we've long suspected: that not even Fox News believes Dick Morris' predictions.
